Where are the best places in Amsterdam for natural/organic weed ?...

I heard homegrown fantasy, greenhouse centrum & basjoes are all good but does anyone know of any others worth visiting ?...

Thanks!

All weed's at Dampkring's are supposedly "bio", as mentionned on their menus.
Greenhouse and Coins (Hunters) also mention which are bio and hydros.

The most organic/bio weed I've seen in Amsterdam is from Club Media and Yo-Yo's.

As I've learned, bio does not necessarily mean grown organically, but rather grown in soil. Club Media advertises their weed as organic. I think Barney's has some as well. Ask the budtender he/she should know.

Homegrown Fantasy have some really nice Durban Poison at 5euros a gram. Grown organically in soil, in greenhouses in NL, its not as crystal covered as the indoor grown buds, but tbh its probably as strong as half the "skunk" that goes round london.

As for genuine outdoor imported weed, I've never been that impressed with what I've found in Amsterdam. I get better thai in London, and even the Super Jamaican from Anyday seems to be full of seeds, the standard stuff over there seems shite - maybe I just have good links in blighty

Try the stuff from homegrown fantasy, you'll probably like it.

Also definitely worth a shot is YoYo as boner said - the Hindu Kush from there is not the strongest, as I think they use no nutes, but my my what a flavour

Never did make it to Yo-Yo. Worth it?

Geoff, I wouldnt make a special trip, but if your in the area give it a shot. It makes a nice afternoon wandering around the shops near de pijp... if I recall it closes early, and seemed very light, with lots of plants (not weed) making for a relaxing shop, away from the bright lights and 50 euro icolaters. I havent been since september 07 though, so things could have changed, but somehow I doubt it, in this friendly, locals old school shop.

They had none left 3 weeks ago, did they get a new batch? I am curious to try that.

ah, ok, they had it previously - your news is more up to date than mine, thanks for correcting me

Cool, thanks. That's what I thought.

Yo Yo's is very much an old ladys 'local' c/s, but has some of the best organic buds in Amsterdam. Grown with REAL LOVE and attention. A little way out of the centre so prices are good! Well worth a visit, but it is a late opening c/s, don't bother getting there before lunchtime!

go to the 'cannabis college' near to sensi seeds. they should know.

i was actually speaking to one of the people working there about organic weed (no additives or fertilizers, outdoor in the ground, and only sun light), and he said that there is little to none available in amsterdams coffeeshops.

by definition, its all comercial weed, and will have at some point been fertilized and in some cases worse, to produce profitable crops.

he implied that in order to get proper organic 'sun light and soil only' weed, you would have to grow it or know (and trust) someone who grows it.

if there is some available in 'dam, some one there would know.
